Preparation method

How do you make this?

Prepare the Harissa Chickpeas: Heat the olive oil in a pan and add the chopped shallots. Let them become translucent. Then add the harissa, garlic powder, and smoked paprika, and sauté briefly until the spices are fragrant. Add the chickpeas and heat them well. Deglaze with the lemon juice and season with a pinch of salt.

Make the Cucumber Salad: Slice the cucumbers into super thin slices using a mandoline or grater. Mix the cucumbers with the finely chopped parsley, vinegar, and sesame oil.

Prepare the Hummus Dressing: Put the hummus, lemon juice, grain mustard, cumin powder, tahini, and water in a blender. Blend everything until creamy dressing.

Warm the Pita Breads: Toast the pita breads in a toaster or warm them in the oven.

Assemble: Layer the pitas with the harissa chickpeas, cucumber salad, and hummus dressing. Add extra harissa if you like a bit more heat.

Tips

Variation: Add some fresh tomatoes or grilled peppers for extra vegetables.
Tahini Alternative: No tahini at home? You can replace it with a spoonful of peanut butter for a different twist.
